Your wedding isn’t a photoshoot.

It’s a day full of people you love, moments you won’t see coming, and memories that matter far more than perfect poses.

That’s where I come in.

I’m James, a Somerset-based wedding photographer capturing weddings across the UK - focusing on real moments, real people, and the story of your day exactly as it unfolds.

No awkward posing.
No forced smiles.
Just honest, relaxed photography that feels like you.

Hey, I’m James

Wedding Photographer, Dress Fluffer, Sweat Eater

Thank you so much for stopping by, I’m James - a wedding photographer based in the UK, usually found blending into the background, cracking terrible dad jokes and keeping an eye out for moments you’ll want to remember later. Sweet bars are my downfall, but you’ll see me carry pushchairs, pin on buttonholes (literally every wedding), calm your nerves, and even tell you when food is ready!! I care about people more than poses, atmosphere more than aesthetics, and telling the story as it actually happened.

Away from weddings, I’m at home with my two daughters (yes, a girl dad!) and my wife. I love to try keep fit in any way possible, which currently is in the gym. I love cycling, going travelling and trying to be the best role model to my girls.

“My wife and I had the most the most perfect day and now we can look back on it for the rest of our lives thanks to James’s incredible photos. He totally knew when to step in or step back, and multiple people have told us how great he was on the day, and how beautiful our photos are.”

“James made us feel so relaxed and natural. Everyone at our wedding had only the best things to say about James as it felt like he was part of the family by the end of the day. We feel extremely lucky that we found James and can’t imagine having been able to find anyone better.”

“Wow! James went above and beyond for our wedding! Even endured a trek down the side of a cliff just to make sure we got the best photos possible! James felt more like a guest with how quickly he connected with everyone and how comfortable he made us all feel! Now we can remember the day with the most beautiful pictures and cannot thank James enough!”

“Just a superb photographer, chap and all round human. My partner and I are absolutely delighted with our photographs. You’d expect that from most photographers but the thing that makes James different and superior to others is his friendliness, kindness and how extremely approachable he is.”

— Megan & Josh (Kia Ora Farm)
